Version 2 of Alternate widget sets

(*Grumble, grumble* It's "alternative" or "extra", not "alternate". The latter means something like a seesaw. --KL) (Webster says that alternate means constituting an alternative (took the alternate route home. Besides, the seesaw definition fits - as one teeter totters back and forth between Tk and these additional extensions).
